    Aarrrgghh!!! Just had a phone call from the Book-keeper of the Playgroup. Apparently there is a hole in the finances that you can drive a juggernaut through. Just what we need with a meeting being held here tonight!!!

    Anyone got a feeling of deja-vu???

    Speaking of which - I think some loud music to finish the cleaning through the bottom of the house is called for - only Lady Cat is sitting at the window giving me evils because I won't let her out. Another cat got sick last night so there is no way on earth she is allowed out to play....... but goodness she is good at the guilt trip.

    How awful that another kitty got sick last night, you are right to keep Lady Cat in although she is is giving you the evil eye. Mum was telling me about an evil kitty that lives near her - he is quite vicious and attacked mum one day and attacked one of her friends up the road, there are times when it is difficult for mum to go out into the garden because he is such a vile animal. Another cat visits mum - a ginger tom called Tom, he comes around for fuss, food and drink and a brush. He is a long haired cat whose owners are too lazy to look after him so mum gives him a daily brush - he goes home when he gets bored so she hasn't encouraged him to live with them. Must admit that cats scare me - I think they are going to suffocate me in my sleep:eek:

    I think that I shall have a gentle day today, letter to twit will be sent tomorrow with postal orders (I plan to go out tomorrow as I need to go to Aldi for sugar and ice cream seeing as their vanilla soft scoop is 99p). I know ice cream is a real treat but I haven't had any since Easter:eek: I shall do the washing up, do a bit more tidying, think about removing the dying tomato plants and tidying up my balcony. Cook dinner and have some less stress time. Must also type up minutes from last night's committee meeting.

    Good afternoon:)

    lovely sunny day again here today, so a load of washing is on the line and another load in wm, only got a load of whites then and I'm upto date :)

    The upstairs of my house is like bayroute, Dh has started rearranging ds1 room so he is able to shut his bedroom door and started stripping the wallpaper, so ds1 room is in mine and ds2 room at the moment, no-one can move.

    Need to get a bit of shopping, run out of potatos and need to get a curry sauce, the pork I cooked on sun, will it be ok to use today? its been in the fridge.

    After I been shopping, I'm going to have another go at those gloves, they are not going to beat me :) by the time I make 1 pair I bet MG and the rest of you could make 10 lol.

    I got a strange cat sat on my settee giving the boys a fuss a tortoise kitten, came in yesterday too

    Grrrr emailed approved foods and order will come tomorrow hopefully but we are off to visit my olds for the day and dh is only in in the morning - flippin nuisance but hopefully will be worth it.

    Today has mostly been taken up with nits :( and getting rid of them - ds had a letter from school and brought some home (and given them to me too) thankfully dd with her long thick hair seems to have escaped or we would still be searching now (sorry if tmi)

    Off out to watch Contagion with dh and a couple of friends tonight - first night out together since er.....February!!! so quite looking forward to it and it's Orange free day for dh so still mse.

    LOL @ Horace and her unhelpful creditor. My mum always called it "putting the influence on them" ;)

    The scary thing is that the bad vibes do work. I sent bad vibes to now ex BF (we were going out at the time) and he ended up setting fire to his flat (own fault too boozed up at night and he left the grill on - firemen woke him up). I sent bad vibes to someone who crossed me a long time ago - they ended up falling down and breaking their leg...call me witchy:rotfl: I must have some sort of knack because a chum in Swindon was moaning one day about losing a vital piece of camera equipment so I told him that it was under the roadmap in his glovebox - it was exactly where I said it would be and I know that I didnt put it there as I haven't seen him or his wife since last year...spooky or what?:eek:
